Haha y u TRUMPTARDS are so hypocritical? Just lose honorably, c'mon please, you know you want to lose... it's the "moral high ground", it's not like the institutional left has been using various chicanery and lawfare for decades... it's not like they'll say one thing and do another (it's not hypocrisy if you're one of the faithful).
 
Most importantly is the multiple instances of observers being blocked from the vote counting and the counters outright blocking the windows with cardboard like the FBI did on Epstein's island to block that drone camera. They are also appealing a court ruling stating there needs to be observers when they count votes.
This is so obvious it'd make for a comedy sketch
They shouldn't be counting in a room which has windows the public can see through in the first place. It's a safety risk and votes should be counted at a secure location.

Do you have a link to the court ruling? I'm seeing so much shit being regurgitated by both sides at the moment that I'm skeptical of any claim which doesn't include an original source.
 
The common opinion I'm hearing is that Biden will remain president for a year or two before stepping down for Kamala but will this motherfucker even make it a year or two? If he wins at this point, everyone is going to hate him so much that he's going to drop dead from a stress-induced heart attack within 2 months.
 
If the legal challenges go on long enough, it might end up in Delegation. In which case, you would have the House pick the PotUS (Biden) and the Senate pick the VP (Pence). This is actually not a terrible outcome.
That would be pretty great for the right, considering the VP was supposed to be the one in charge all along.

What happens if Biden dies before the legal challenges are over?

During the primaries he said indicated he was only going to serve a single term. Something that's been memoryholed:

Biden signals to aides that he would serve only a single term​

While the option of making a public pledge remains available, Biden has for now settled on an alternative strategy: quietly indicating that he will almost certainly not run for a second term while declining to make a promise that he and his advisers fear could turn him into a lame duck and sap him of his political capital.

The dems have been crying Russia for 4 years and impeached him. The right coping isn't as bad as the dems fighting tooth and nail to get him kicked out.
 
Wow I guess that's why Canada and the UK don't have 2 main parties. Kinda like America where there's still the Green Party and all sorts of other shit, but everyone rightfully says don't bother.
Except neither of those places uses a voting system that allows you to vote for multiple candidates? They both use first past the post, just like the US, which is openly regarded as the worst possible voting system that can still be considered democratic. The only difference is they don't use the electoral college.

FPTP inherently leads to a two-party system, because voting for anyone other than the most popular party that's closest to your politics means taking votes away from said party and making it more likely the one you don't like will win. It's why voting third party is just a bad idea in the US and Canada, as well as anywhere else that uses FPTP.
 
You really think so? Because I suspect many Americans will view Trump's forthcoming legal shenanigans as a last gasp bid from a desperate man who wants, more than anything else, to remain popular and relevant.

@realDonaldTrump could accept defeat with dignity and grace. Try to salvage what’s left of his legacy and reputation.

Instead, we will all be subjected to a costly, time-consuming and, ultimately, futile spectacle that will dominate cable news for the foreseeable future. Democracy in action!
Lol what fucking planet have you been on for the past four years?

The last time mail ins decided an election it was in the Republicans favor but go ahead and keep acting like it's a fraudulent Dem tactic if it makes you feel better about losing.

Okay so your amazing strategy is to have people vote for multiple parties and that will solve the issue of literally every party falling along the left/right spectrum.

Since the election has already happened, if Biden dies before electoral votes are counted and presented to Congress the Democratic party just nominates a new candidate (probably their VP candidate, Kamala, but it doesn't have to be). For all effective purposes, it's considered the party that wins.

If he dies after congress affirms the electoral votes, standard rules of succession apply and Kamala automatically steps up (even though it's before inauguration).
 
mmm... based??

Well, fuck, why don't we do that? Why didn't we do it long ago? Fuck all the "Biden is gross and sniffs children" memes, that shit reeks of boomerism and fails to capture the nonsensical memetic power that makes the ADL and SPLC lose their minds.

Just make Biden the new Pepe. Shop swastikas onto his arm in pictures, completely out of context, with him doing the OK gesture. Make cartoons with him palling around with Moon Man in Somalia or some stupid shit like that. I'm not talking about achieving any political objective; I'm saying it would be funny and it would make people mad, and that's what I call a moral victory. Make Biden the new Ben Garrison.
 
Trump's back on track to flip AZ, FYI (they're still doing the original count, 230,000 left to count and Trump's been doing better than expected in Mariacopa). He needs (as of now) 57.96% of the remaining count and he's pulling 58.4%.

That said, I seriously doubt GA will flip back even after the military vote comes in (if it even comes in. Today's the deadline for those 9k ballots).

He won't take PA in raw votes, but that is the state most likely to have a successful suit that invalidates ballots.

That'd put us at 269-269 if NC doesn't flip blue. Which holy shit would that be entertaining. That's the outcome I'm hoping for, just to watch congress have to lose its shit.
If Biden takes GA and Nevada and loses Arizona, he'd still be at 275 and win.
